Basis for GST Exemption

1. Notification Dated 28.06.2017 (Heading 9964 Onwards):
   The Ministry of Finance, Department of Revenue, in its notification dated 28.06.2017 (enclosed for reference), stipulates GST exemptions for various services provided to the Government. This principle enables the Government to exempt specific services provided by agencies from the liability of GST payment.
2. Relevance to ICTSR's Functions:
   While the specific stipulation under Sl. No. 72 of the notification (Heading 9992) may not explicitly name ICTSR, the institute's role in imparting training to government officers aligns with the spirit and principle of the notification. ICTSR functions as a nonprofit organization, delivering training exclusively for government personnel, and its services merit consideration for exemption from GST liability.

In addition to the above programme other customized Executive Development Programs to the destinations of choice can be organized.
